= Type of Washington.

One OF the most conspicuous, ana con-
Sequently, as things are estimated here,
most successful OF all the host Of these
aspirants for social laurels IS the widow
of Rocky Mountain mining camp bar
keeper. She herself was a washer
woman, and in spite OF several years,
residence il "Yrrup," retains much OF
the broguc and many of the characterls-
tics OF her formerly highly honorable
and useful avocation. But What matters
it that she cannot utter Z sentence OF re-
spectablc English? What, though in
Respondent Partisan creations Of satin,
velvet and feathers, she looks like the
queen of Biddles masquerade? She IS
rich as a she-Cr9sus, and ''entertalns"
like entertainment IN
this city of execrable taverns referring
largely to punch and salad bowls, GRO
duette platters and wine bottles. She
gorges the oot-too-fastidious leaders Of
the Washington ''Nanity Fair with the
highest priced vituals, and swills them
with the choicest yintages of Burgundy
and champagne. One OF her recent
"blowouts, as she would call 1t, brought
together many Of the most noted people
in the capital and guests Of distinction
from distant parts Of the country.
That miracle OF municipal modesty,
Chicago, contributed pair OF these
glded elbowers and pushers, whose
grotesque, gold-plated antics have for
two or three years afforded amusement
to on-gazing gods and men. Nothing is
too extravsgant for their Chicagonese
nerve or cheek. They went into official
mourning year or so ago for q person
they had never met, and there seems
little reason to doubtthatif her Majesty,
Victoria, by the grace OF God Queen Of
England and Empress OF India, should
happen to pass in her royal checks their
brown-stone castle would fly a black flag
for thirty days and discount the British
Minister'S residence in profuseness Of
emblematic woe.-Washington Letter to
st. Louis Globe-Democrat.

The Cotton Movement.

The New York Financial Chronicle,
reviewing the cotton movement, says
that for the week ending Friday, March
IS. the total receipts have reached 3l,116
bales. against 1858 last week, 1851
the previous week, and 95,0l3 three
weeks since; making the total receipts
since lst September, 1886, 4,959.97l
bales, against /, 727,:74 for the same pc
ROD # 1SS5-S6, showing an increase
since September l, 1886, OF 232, 400
bales.
The exports for the week ending Fri
dav evening reach total OF l31,l5b
bales, Of which 1886 were to Great
Britain, +,470 to France, and $3.50 to
the rest of the continent. The total
sales for forward delivery for the week
are 532, 700 bales. For immediate deliv-
erv the total sales foot up this week
IBIS bales. including ,21S for consump-
ton. The imports into continental ports
this week have been $4,000 bales.
There was a decrease in the cotton IL
sight Friday night of sc, III bales as
compared with the same date OF 1856,
an increase of l49, 0S1 bales as compared
with the corresponding date OF 1885,
and a decrease OF 1913, 10S bales as COM
pared with 1884. The old interior stocks
have decreased during the week 30, 3i2
bales, and are tonight 190,3S2 bales less
than at the same period last year. The
receipts at the same towns have been
). .19l bales more than the same week last
year, and since September l the receipts
at all the towns are G9,4S3 bales more
than for the same time in 1856.
The total receipts from the plantations
since September l, 1856, were Dip, 42S
bales: in 1886 were 5,l04, 0i6; IN
ISSlS5 were 4,675,3 BOG. Although the
receipts at the ontports the past week
were ,1rI6 bales, the actual movement
from plantations was onl; 2l,GGS, the
balance being taken from the stocks at
the interior towns. Last year rececclnts
from the plantatic..sss:55r the same week
were -, 80 bales, and for 1885 they were
u, sos. The increase in the amount III
sight Friday night, as compared with
last year, was 59,+Sl bales, the increase
as compared with 1SS4-S5 was S,3l3,
and the increase over 1SS3-S4 was G9l,-
379.
The Chronicle thinks that these figures
may he :: little inaccurate, because, be-
tween the lst September, 1886. and the
lSt March, 1887, cotton which passed
through Savannah. consigned to Charles
ton, was included IL The receipts of each
port-werc twice counted. These twice
counted shipments aggregated 21,2eo
bales.

ssIt was once my fortune, he says,
'.to see young man take an AK IN ms
hand and walk alone across 200 yards OF
open ground under the fire Of 400 dis
mounted troopers, and deliberately cut
down telegraph pole. While he was
chopping away at the tough cedar wooo
could plainly see the sphnters whirilng
away from the pole from top to bottom,
as the whining bullets aimed ct INN
crashed through It, OF scanned its sides
with ragged scars. Near by stood a
brick chimney, where a house had been
burned down; a twelve pound shot
struck the pile, and it went tumbllng 20
earth, scattering its bricks about, some
